I just learned something shocking about Valentine’s Day did you know: Valentine’s Day has nothing to do with love its origins are so creepy, its freaking me out. It all started with an ancient roman festival called Lupercalia, a festival to celebrate the god of fertility it’s filled with disgusting rituals. listen to this so firstly was the ritual of fertility where men they would whip women with dead animals and will chase them to the streets like what! Then secondly was a love lottery where women’s names are picked out randomly, and then forced to sleep with men then they’re enslaved and forced to marriage. what is going on do you know where the colour of red came from? it’s to represent the blood shed of this innocent women and animals uhg then around 500AD the catholic church how popular this festival was and decided to replace it. The early Christian leaders found a great way to spread Christianity by rebranding these pagan holidays they also did this with Christmas, Easter, Halloween, new years crazy right so the church rebranded February 14th after saint valentine, who was brutally executed now what makes things even worse we’ve all been brain washed valentines day has turned into this huge scam where big corporations make you feel pressured into spending on roses chocolate gifts am sorry, but am boycotting valentines day this year shouldn’t we be showing love to our partners every day? What did you guys do.
